Answer:

  width: 15 inches; length: 20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation tells you the product of width (x) and length (x+5) is 300, so you're looking for factors of 300 that differ by 5.

  300 = 1·300 = 2·150 = 3·100 = 4·75 = 5·60 = 6·50 = 10·30 = 12·25 = 15·20

The factors in the last pair on this list differ by 5, so we have ...

  • width = 15 inches
  • length = 20 inches

Geometry question. Parallel lines. “Find value of x that will make A||B”
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

These angles are alternate exterior angles which means they are equal to each other:

5x + 9 = 6x - 2

5x - 6x = -2 - 9

-x = -11

x = 11

How do I solve x+2y=8
zepelin [54]
X+2y=8
2y=8-x |:2
y=-\frac{1}{2}x+4
y=ax+b ==> y=-\frac{1}{2}x+4
We calculate the zeros of functions (0,b)
(0,b) = (0,4)
We have solution:
x=0, y=4
